Tracking is the funding model of online advertising and investor storytime but it's not the funding model of the web. I think there's no such thing as a funding model of the web.
the web was exclusively non commercial and later was opened to commercial activity and later advertising which added tracking because their business model was broken and they needed something to show their customers and investors to gein/keep their trust that online advertising was not a total scam as physical world mostly is.
The unexpected side effect is the creation of a global totalitarian surveillance state just to show ads:
